Which of these two World views tends toward the criminal?

Any reader familiar with these posts will begin to notice an ethical and moral component. This is intended. Blood and gore is easy. Writing for the unborn generations (human and nonhuman) is more important. So I write about cleaning up the BIG CRIMES against all of nature, too.

We need to think of "crime" in more general and meaningful terms for posterity.

- Concern for all life forms - Concern for limited human life
- Sustainable Economies - Growth Economies
- Decentralized Economies and Governments - Centralized Economies and Governments
- Egalitarian - Power over others
-Honors Diversity in Society and Nature - Standardization, Shallow Environmentalism
- Long-term Thinking and Ecological Protection - Short-term Thinking and Ecological Denial
- Heedful use, Development of Science and Technology - Heedless use, Development of Science and Technology
- Ecologically Sensitive Environmental Ideology - Nature as Instrument Environmental Ideology
- Environmental Ethics - Situational Ethics
- Ecological Wisdom: Nature is very complex to think about. Nature is possibly more complex than we can think. Live for benefit of next seven generations -- soft technology. - Ecological Arrogance: What can be done to nature will be done. Ignores or discounts destruction, future generally ignored -- short-term market remedies.
